The highly personal style of Óscar Seco is characterized by an atmosphere that is simultaneously dreamlike, humorous and critical, in which representations  of both current events and major historical events are imbued. His work is expressed through painting, sculpture and also models. Within scenes of the civil war, the Second World War or typical Brueghel Nordic landscapes, you can find some comic book characters -like a disillusioned Superman- some gigantic pigeons or even some toys that are installed in those infernal or anachronistic environments. . The critique of society is revealed behind both satirical and naive elements, since the world of geopolitics mixes with that of surrealism and childhood: the viewer's imagination unfolds almost_cc781905 -5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_automatically against such visions. When Óscar Seco was awarded with the unanimous vote of the Focus-Abengoa Prize jury in its thirtieth edition, endowed with 24,000 euros, they said of his painting that 'it addresses a disturbing personal mythology, interwoven with visual paradoxes that he has managed to assemble with coherence and pictorial skill capable of integrating appropriations that cover both the history of art and the world of comics'.
